Law & Order: Criminal Intent (2001)

Law & Order: Criminal Intent features LGBTQ+ characters in various capacities, often as part of crime narratives. While prejudice is sometimes depicted as a negative external force, queer identity is generally presented incidentally, neither consistently uplifting nor denigrating, aligning with the show's procedural format.

The show often features characters who misuse Christian faith for personal gain or to justify crimes, but the narrative consistently condemns these individual actions as a perversion, implicitly affirming the religion's core values and dignity.

The series tends to avoid broad generalizations, portraying Muslim characters as individuals. If a character misuses Islamic principles, the narrative condemns the individual's actions, not the religion, thus affirming its dignity.

When Jewish characters or communities are depicted, the show generally portrays them with respect, focusing on individual actions rather than critiquing the faith itself. Any negative portrayals are typically of individuals, not Judaism as a whole.
